The key to this recipe is simple: Don't overcook the eggs or the shrimp, which, if overdone, can become rubbery in texture. The eggs are ready as soon as they're set, and the shrimp is cooked once its uniformly pink and opaque. Serve over steamed rice.

Ingredients
Method
In bowl, whisk together eggs, salt and pepper. In large nonstick skillet or wok, heat half of the sesame oil over medium- high heat; cook eggs, stirring, just until set, about 1 minute. Scrape onto plate.
Wipe pan clean. Heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat; cook ginger, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add shrimp, peas, corn and three-quarters of the green onions; cook, stirring occasionally, until shrimp is pink and opaque throughout and peas and corn are heated through, about 3 minutes.
Stir in eggs, soy sauce and remaining sesame oil. Scrape into serving bowl; sprinkle with remaining green onions.
